The rare order, made at Mold Crown Court, means that apart from registering his details with the police, his life will be restricted in many ways – including how many phones, computers or bank accounts he can possess and who he can associate with.

Judge Merfyn Hughes QC said that Gizzi was a man with a very serious criminal history who required “the most serious and stringent management” on his release if he was to be prevented from committing serious crime yet again.

The order will come into effect when Gizzi, 41, of The Granary, Bodoryn Fawr, St George, Abergele, is released – expected to be in May 2015.
